How much does it cost to visit the most famous monuments in the world?

Alhambra in Granada
This article occurred to me during a getaway to the Cuevas del Drach in Mallorca, specifically in Porto Cristo. They charged me 14.50 euros to see them and I thought it was too expensive. Then, seeing all that they hide and enjoying the final show, I changed my mind because it was worth being there.

On the way to the hotel I decided to write an article about how much money it costs to visit the most famous monuments in the world. I wanted to make a comparison that is very useful to know which countries take advantage of tourists the most.
